My own stick figure drawings make me feel more than any fancy AI art ever could, and trust me, they are BAD. Pretty sure my mom still has one on her fridge and it looks like a potato with legs. So yeah, it's gotta be the care behind it, not the skill.

The jump from 1,800 to 6,400 accounts is wild and I totally get why that would make you second guess everything. I run a small baking page and had the same thing happen when I dropped my tag wall, it felt like the app was finally showing my stuff to people who actually wanted to see it. About your real question, I did the zero tag thing for a full month back in the spring and honestly it held up okay but not great. My reach stayed close to what the 3 tag version was doing, but the comments and saves dropped off a bit, so the folks finding me seemed less interested. My gut says 3 tags is the sweet spot because it still tells the app what the post is about without looking like spam. Zero tags can work if your page already has a strong following, but for a smaller page like ours I would not drop them all the way down.
